Lyrics for Song: She's So Sweet (1949)
Lyrics for Album: The Rhythm & Blues Years Vol. 2 1947-52 [2003]



Yes, I love my baby, she 's as mean as she can be.

Yes, I love my baby, she 's as mean as she can be.

But sweeter than the honey, that flows from a cherry tree.



If my baby ever leaves me, I know I'll lose my mind.

If my baby ever leaves me, I know I'll lose my mind.

'Cause the way she loves me, she 's so sweet and fine.



She 's so fine, so mella, I'm the lucky fella, and glad to be.

She 's so fine, so mella, I'm the lucky fella, and glad to be.

Yes, she 's my honey drippin' mama, and she really pleases me.



Every time my baby kiss me, my legs get so weak I can't stand on my feet.

Every time my baby kiss me, my legs get so weak I can't stand on my feet.

Yes, the way my baby loves me, yes, it can't be beat.



She 's so fine, she 's so mella, I'm the lucky fella, and glad to be.

Yes, she 's so fine, she 's so mella, I'm the lucky fella, and glad to be.

Yes, she 's my honey drippin' mama, and she really pleases me.
